First of all sry for replying to an old thread. But since I have pretty much the same problem it didn’t seem right to create a new topic with the same name.
I wanted to uninstall kde completely after I switched to gnome already. I did not use the meta package you suggested and will do so beforehand since it includes a lot of packages I was apparently missing.
My question is connected to the uninstalling part. Finding this from an arch developer:
pacman -Rnsc kdeled me to ask your opinion what would be preferable or what your reasoning would be to not use the cascading, recursive and nosave flags. (The linked post is from 2008 so your approach might be preferable now).So if you would not mind elaborating in a few sentences I would be very thankful for that.
edit: I compared the outcome of both and the outcome of Rnsc was safe to execute (dependencies were fine and removed 4 packages more)

i would install GNOME first, reboot, login to GNOME and remove KDE then…
sudo pacman -S antergos-gnome-meta
reboot to GNOMEsudo pacman -Rnsc kde
